Young People

Children & Young PeopleWelcome to the area dedicated to, and offering information about, Children and Young People's Befriending Services.

As well as resources for our existing members, we hope the pages will be useful for new services being considered, for other professionals hoping to learn more about the sector and for anyone with an interest in how befriending works in relation to children and young people.

“For children and young people a supportive befriender can provide real help through a crisis situation or enable them to perform better at school or act as a bridge to involvement in the child or young person's community.”
